As we head towards the festive season, a little reminder that although these plants ( among others ) are very pretty, they also pose a risk to our furry friends! Please bear this in mind when decorating your home for Christmas.

Please take care on your way to us today as lots of the minor roads around us have experienced some flooding. It is safe to get to us still ( we’ve made it here 😁) but we’d rather you take your time and if you arrive a few minutes late, we’d rather you arrived here safely than not at all!

‘It’s beginning to look a lot like Christmas 🎄’

Today we’ve been busy working on our Christmas stock display ⛄️

With a lovely range of doggy bandanas, Christmas treats, cards, toys and more there is something to suit everyone’s pocket.

We’ll be adding to the display over the coming weeks so please pop in and take a look.

Thank you to our models for showing off the bandanas so beautifully 😁

As most of you will have seen, Pete’s son Simon has been back for another visit.

We have some fantastic news that we would like to share with you all!

We are now stocking a range of affordable support wheels for cats and dogs with moving disabilities.

These are produced by Simon using a 3d printer and are uniquely designed with the comfort of the animal and its mobility in mind.

You are welcome to come in and view these at the practice or give us a call for more info.

Today we bid a fond farewell to Pete’s children Simon and Lauren, as they make their way back to South Africa.

Simon and Lauren have spent a fantastic week here with Pete and with us visiting the practice. Lauren even celebrated her birthday with us ( any excuse for cake 😉 )

Lots of downtime to enjoy being tourists, with visits to Osborne House and The Needles included, as well as making happy family memories with Pete.

We’ve loved having you here with us and wish you a safe journey home. Hopefully it won’t be too long until we see you again…. rest assured we’ll take good care of dad for you until your return!

Dear Registered Clients

As you know, we are committed to providing a personal, caring service 24 hours a day, and as part of this effort, we are excited to announce a change in the way we provide emergency care outside of our normal opening times.

Since we opened in November 2022, Peter has been providing his own out of hours coverage every night and weekend, but starting on Monday 28th October we will be trialling a new way of working for emergency calls outside of our normal working hours.

What is changing..?

From Monday 28th October, we will be working with our colleagues at both The Carisbrooke Vets and at Wight Vets to provide out of hours emergency cover for clients of all three practices.
This collaboration is a way to significantly improve long term sustainability for all our clinical teams, who provide 24 hour emergency cover 365 days a year for your pets. If successful, this trial will be extended.

What do I do in an emergency..?

If you have an emergency outside of our normal hours between 5.30 pm and 8.30 am Monday to Friday:
• Call our normal telephone number 01983 653769.
• Press Option 1 to be transferred to The Carisbrooke Vets or our duty vet who will answer your call and advise on the best course of action.

Where do I have to take my pet..?

If you have been advised by the duty vet that your pet needs to be seen, you may be asked to bring them to us here at The Old Granary or to take them to either The Carisbrooke Vets or Wight Vets. They are located at:

• The Carisbrooke Vets – 107 Carisbrooke Road, Newport, IW PO30 1HP
• Wight Vets – 15 Chapel Street, Newport, IW PO30 1PY where there is ample parking opposite in the Chapel Street car park.

Who and when do I pay..?

Payment should be made at the time directly to the practice at which your pet is seen. All the other practices have out of hours fees which are comparable to our own.

What happens if they have to be admitted..?

Any patients who have been hospitalised at another practice for further treatment will be transferred back to our clinic the next day if appropriate. If they are ready to go home by the following morning, they should be collected from the practice where they were hospitalised.

Patients continue to be registered with their respective practices for all routine care and appointments. Your pet’s clinical notes will be shared with the practice you see, should you have an emergency, and clinical notes will be returned to your usual practice the following day so that continuity of care is maintained.

Rest assured that we, as an independent practice, will still be able to provide you with the same level of routine care that you have come to expect from us - you may just be seen by another trusted colleague should you have an emergency overnight or at the weekend. It does not mean that you are being permanently transferred to any other practice.

Thank you for your patience and understanding whilst we trial this new arrangement. If you have any questions or concerns or require any additional support, please don’t hesitate to get in touch with us at either by email at: [email protected] or via PetsApp.

Many thanks

The People’s Vet Team
